Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Gordon, Ginna B B (illustratore). nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Debbie Chinn's first book, 'Dancing in Their Light: A Daughter's Unfinished Memoir,' (Strange Fate Publishing, 2022) encapsulated her life as a 'restaurant kid,' growing up in her family's prominent New York restaurant and Polynesian nightclub, Mah Jong Restaurant, during the 1960s and 70s. Debbie wondered how she might tell the story of 'Dancing in Their Light' in an educational and pictorial way to depict the arc of her family stories and of the defining bicultural moments in U.S. and Chinese civic relationships, in which her family of immigrants played a significant part. At the same time, Debbie has long been intrigued by the power of art therapy. Music, theatre, and dance have been sources of balm for her, as she describes in 'Dancing in Their Light.' Moreover, a constant through line in her career as a successful arts CEO has been developing programs that connect art with emotional recalibration. 'Year of the Dragon' is the first in a series of 'colorable graphic memoirs' based on the themes and stories of 'Dancing in Their Light.' It is an homage to Chinese New Year, representing new beginnings. The series features the extraordinary talents of author and artist Ginna BB Gordon, editor of Debbie's first book, 'Dancing in Their Light.' A multitalented woman, Ginna is an artist at the core, and has painstakingly rendered the exquisite colorable illustrations in this book by hand, beautifully capturing the essence of Debbie's family's story. The creators of this volume hope it serves as a fun, educational, and intergenerational activity to inspire you to learn more about the cultures and norms of Chinese New Year, and to give you an insight into how Debbie's family enterprise, Mah Jong Restaurant, grew to become one of the most popular culinary destinations during the gilded age of dining, 1960-1980.
